March is a big month here at the Adams Farm, because it's Maple Sugaring Season, and we invite you
to come join us in what is Vermont's most celebrated event. The start of sugaring is an exciting time;
Farmer Bill is busy in the sugarbush gathering sap and boiling maple syrup in our authentic sugarhouse, built
in 1939. We'll have plenty of "sugar on snow", complete with pickles! It's an exciting time not to be missed!
